OGDEN CITY.
General Notes.

TallrOdu ldDOreT was uneu 4ZU Tor Oils
turbing the peace of lower Fifth stree
saloon. On the whole it must be con
coded that the police force are fairly en-
ergetic and measureably successful il
suppressing squibbles, riots and rowdi
ness. For the large percentage of float
ing and transient population, Ogden car
claim great credit for general orderliness
have heard from Miss Bertha Vor
Hillern. the celebrated Boston Landscape
painter, who is at present enjoying and
sketching the beauties of Santa Barbara
California, where she will sojourn fol
several weeks. 1t will be remembered
that the gifted lady was favorably i'm.
messed by the grandiose scenery Of Og.
denis surrounding, while staying here a
dav several weeks ago.
DIR. P. l.. Anderson, one of the Oldest
settled physicians and surgeons of Og-
den. known also all over Weber county,
etc. is greatly suffering from an incura-
bic affection of his eye-sight, in conse-
ouence of which he has next to given up
his once very extensive practice.
The offer of one member of the County
Court, to let the Chamber of Commerce
have the free and exclusive use of the
court room in the Weber County Court
house (where the First District Court
used to hold sessions) is very commenda-
bic, if backed by that body as a whole,
OF which there is no doubt. There are
other eligible locations, however, such as
the rooms in the Stevens block, now oc-
c1pied by the Herald, for $40 a month,
and the second story of the Corey block,
for a rental Of $50. No final choice has
yet been arrived at in the matter.
The heat is beginning to become per-
ceptible, and straw hats of last year are
receiving their renovatory sulphur baths
without any prejudicial influence as to
the birthstone future Of their wearers.
Work at the Idahoan mine $50 l learn
from letter by J. S. Lewis, Esq, is

taken out in large quantities.

sparkling forth with delicious syrup,
made by VIM. NJ. Clark, the expert mix

Der from his feats at Godbe, Pitt & Co.'S.

Mr.. Joseph Frank, brother-in-law of
Mr. Isadore Marks, left for the Coast last

that there is a scarcity of suitable
residences to rent, which should incite
our capitalists to push forward with the
erection of French flats or other family
Judgments.
Mayor D. Eccles will be back on Thurs
day evening from his large lumber mills
and yards at North Powder, Oregon. In
this connection let me say that w. w.
